EAD-Online.be
ModerateReportedEducation
A cybercriminal claims to have put up for sale on a specialized forum, on September 15, 2026, a database presented as belonging to EAD-Online.be, a Belgian e-learning platform linked to the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles. The claim concerns roughly 19,456 users, with the published sample exposing a user ID, first and last name, and an email address. The authenticity, origin, and exact scope of this database have not been independently confirmed, and EAD-Online has not issued any public statement on the incident so far.
If the claim is genuine, associating a name and email address with this educational platform could facilitate targeted phishing campaigns against the individuals concerned.

You are only affected if you had an account or an order with this organisation.
What you can do
- Expect phishing attempts quoting your name and this company. A message that knows your details is not legitimate for that reason.
- You can ask the organisation exactly what was exposed about you (right of access), and complain to the DPA if no answer comes within a month.
